The Czech Republic experienced a “tropical night” as temperatures remained high overnight. The meteorological station in Bystřice pod Hostýnem recorded temperatures fluctuating around 29 degrees Celsius throughout the night. A tropical night is defined as a minimum temperature of 20 degrees Celsius, a threshold met across much of the country, according to the Czech Hydrometeorological Institute (ČHMÚ). This is part of a continuing heatwave affecting the nation for several days. Temperatures are expected to peak on Tuesday, potentially reaching 40 degrees Celsius in southern Moravia. Authorities advise residents to take precautions against the extreme heat. The ongoing heat poses potential risks to vulnerable populations.
